I recall "Magellan". A Captain that forgot to go to NAV/INS and left it in HDG on 747 while crossing the Atlantic a man that has passed the famed pt121 check with Tower Air! S.hit happens and it could have happened to anyone I guess.
Hmm, refresh my memory: I knew some of the Tower Air guys and the problems over there, but the above does not ring a bell.
Your scenario however describes the Korean Air jumbo the Russians shot down in 1983.
There is no doubt that the JAA system as anal as it is, gives a better general knowledge on operating an aircraft than FAA does.
Congrats on your discovery and thanks for insight, and I assume you are going to give flying lessons to all FAA certified pilots because you have a better general knowledge?
But when it comes to the theoretical knowledge of flying and all matters involved, US is far behind the rest of the world and not just JAA
Very arrogant, but if it feels good, go for it.....
don't irritate the MasterGod,
Aye, no MasterGod, just helping some of you JAA dudes with the heads up your arses see the occasional sunshine..Wasting my time?
